Recently, there have been cases of unauthorized person posing as Kirby Morgan factory trained technicians performing maintenance and repairds on KMDSI helmets, masks and equipment, and in some cases actually teaching technician courses.

THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY THREAT TO USERS OF KIRBY MORGAN EQUIPMENT!

ASK FOR AND READ the TECHNICIAN'S CERTIFICATE before you hand your life support equipment over to a so called "factory trained facility" to be sure the tech is not simply authorized to take care of his personal equipment ONLY! (Non-Profit/Non-Dealer = NOT a Kirby Morgan maintenance facility).

The 455 Regulator Will be Available as an Option October 2015 from the Factory, for the SuperLite® 27 Diving Helmet

Products Affected:

500-040SuperLite® 27 Commercial Diving Helmet with Posts

500-041SuperLite® 27 Commercial Diving Helmet with MWP

SuperLite® 27 Helmets with 455 regulators will be available to ship from the factory by October 2015. The SuperFlow® 350 regulator (P/N: 505-069) will continue to be available as a SL® 27 option as well.

Regarding Helmet and Band Mask® regulators, we have improved their overall packaging and presentation. Where needed, tie wraps or other parts are included as well as a warranty card. These changes make the regulators into kits instead of them simply being “a part”. Please see page two for the regulators with their corresponding, new “kit” part numbers.

This bulletin is to inform you that the Main tube, 350-032, used in the balanced REX® & EXOBR® regulators is now being manufactured of stainless steel (previously chromed brass). With this improvement it has been issued a NEW PART NUMBER, 350-143 Main Tube and is stamped with an “S” instead of a “B”.
